This tour isn’t just about seeing the sights – it’s about understanding the city. We bring 2,000 years of Barcelona’s history to life with engaging stories, local legends, and sharp insights that connect the past to the present. You'll explore both hidden corners, iconic landmarks, and the real heart of the Gothic Quarter – led by a passionate, personable local who knows the streets like the back of their hand. With group sizes kept small, we create space for questions, conversation, and a truly personal connection. Whether you’re here for a day or a week, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of Catalan culture, practical tips for your visit, and plenty of memorable moments. We don’t use scripts or umbrellas – just thoughtful storytelling, humour, and genuine love for this city. If you’re looking for something beyond the basics, this is the tour you’ve been hoping for.

Cần Quan Tâm

Gothic Quarter (Barri Gotic)

What sets this tour apart, earning it over 2,500 glowing five-star reviews on other platforms, is that it goes beyond mere sightseeing. It's about immersing yourself in the vibrant culture of Barcelona and Catalonia. We don't offer a cookie-cutter itinerary; instead, we tailor each tour based on your interests, the time of year, day of the week, and even the weather.

Không Có Vé

Edifici de Correus

Our Meeting Point is Edifici de Correus | Most people walk past this building without a second glance – but it’s a beauty hiding in plain sight. Built in the early 20th century, the Edifici de Correus (Old Town Post Office) is a fine example of Spanish eclectic architecture, mixing classical columns with ornate sculptural details. It was designed to impress, and it still does, especially once you notice the carved eagles, symbolic crests, and grand staircases. The four massive columns on the eastern façade mark the perfect meeting point – calm, central, and easy to spot. While it’s still a functioning post office, for us it’s also a symbolic gateway: this is where the tour begins, where we step out of the present and into 2,000 years of Barcelona’s past. It’s the first of many buildings that has more to say than meets the eye.

We took a tour of the Old Town and Gothic Quarter on our first day in Barcelona, and it was fantastic. Matt was excellent, very knowledgeable and informative. He also made an effort to learn about our interests and skillfully incorporated them into the tour. The small group of five made the experience even better. Thanks, Matt!

The tour of the Gothic Quarter was excellent. Our guide, Luke, who recently moved to Barcelona, clearly has a deep passion for the city and its history. We left with fantastic recommendations for dining and other activities. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning about the city’s history in general, as well as this unique neighborhood.
